A girl and her cat take on the world with nothing more than a cup of tea and a good book and enough dreams to fill the universe.
Today, I am headed to Denver for the Colorado Council International Reading Association conference. This will be a new conference for me too, though it will be my second conference as a real teacher and my 13th conference since I began my college career.

Hello world! It's been awhile. I've been a little bogged down with a cat crisis, where my lovely Joplin ran off and has yet to come back and it's been so long, I doubt he will, and a sister visit to Laramie, where I got to see my little sister making a go of it... Continue Reading →

This is my first ever blog round up day and I hope that you are all just as excited as I am. The NASA blog project for my NASA mentorship is off to a great start, even though there was a little trepidation from several parties at the beginning. There are five blogs so far,... Continue Reading →

It's been a little over a month since my last post, but I want to get back into the swing of things. I have missed blogging and tweeting and my Special Methods class especially, but by continuing to blog, I can still communicate with them and with others. I can be a part of change...
